Damian Wilde is an artist from Cape Town who grew up in a home filled with schizophrenics and manic-depressives whom his mother cared for. She would help those who were transitiioning back to the treal world and had difficulty ajusting. Eventually these people would often take care of Damian, and ended up becoming his friends.
Now he’s making music, and he just released his debut EP Noir. “The Umbrella Co.” is the lead single and its a heartbreaking affair. Lead by a gentle piano, the song is a personal confession for Wilde, who leaves his heart there on the table for us. It’s a powerful expression, one of many on the EP.
